Full Description

Centred at this point are the remains of a croft covering an area of c2.5 hectares, consisting of 2 structures, several fields defined by broad rig and by stone clearance heaps, probable potato clamps and a possible corn-drying kiln. Fragmentary walling suggests there might have been a stock enclosure on the E. The site lies to the W of an extensive peat cutting which may have cut into other areas of rig cultivation.
